Testis cancer is the most common solid malignancy in young males. The purpose of this guideline to provide a useful reference on effective evidence-based treatment early stage testicular cancer.The systematic review utilized inform was conducted by methodology team at Johns Hopkins University Evidence-based Practice Center. searched using PubMed®, Embase®, and Cochrane Central Register Controlled Trials (CENTRAL) from January 1980 through August 2018. evidence also reviewed relevant reviews...
The long-term toxicities of chemotherapy and radiotherapy can represent a significant burden to testicular cancer survivors. Retroperitoneal lymph node dissection (RPLND) is an established treatment for germ cell tumors with minimal late morbidity although little data exist on its efficacy in early metastatic seminoma. Surgery seminoma prospective phase II single-arm, multi-institutional trial RPLND as first-line clinically low-volume retroperitoneal lymphadenopathy.

Development of methods for rapid distinction between cancerous and non-neoplastic tissues is an important goal in disease diagnosis. To this end, desorption electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (DESI-MS) imaging was applied to analyze the lipid profiles thin tissue sections 68 samples human prostate cancer normal tissue. The state determined by independent histopathological examination. Cholesterol sulfate identified as a differentiating compound, found almost exclusively including...
Abstract Diagnosis of human bladder cancer in untreated tissue sections is achieved by using imaging data from desorption electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (DESI‐MS) combined with multivariate statistical analysis. We use the distinctive DESI‐MS glycerophospholipid (GP) spectral profiles to visually characterize and formally classify twenty pairs (40 samples) cancerous adjacent normal samples. The individual ion images derived acquired correlate standard histological hematoxylin...
We evaluate the incidence and risk factors of parastomal hernia formation in patients undergoing radical cystectomy ileal conduit urinary diversion.We retrospectively reviewed Indiana University database between 2001 2011, identified 516 who underwent diversion. Overall 199 had a clinical followup at least 12 months all postoperative staging computerized tomography to confirm presence hernia. The is reported with correlations made demographic, patient level perioperative factors.A developed...
Radical prostatectomy is a common treatment option for prostate cancer before it has spread beyond the prostate. Examination surgical margins performed post-operatively with positive reported to occur in 6.5-32% of cases. Rapid identification cancerous tissue during surgery could improve resection. Desorption electrospray ionization (DESI) an ambient method which produces mass spectra dominated by lipid signals directly from tissue. With use multivariate statistics, these can be used...
BackgroundTo report our experience utilizing a multidisciplinary clinic (MDC) at Indiana University (IU) since the publication of International Germ Cell Cancer Collaborative Group (IGCCCG), and to compare overall survival (OS) that National Institute (NCI) Surveillance, Epidemiology, End Results (SEER) Program.Patients methodsWe conducted retrospective analysis all patients with metastatic germ-cell tumor (GCT) seen IU from 1998 2014. A total 1611 consecutive were identified, whom 704...
Abstract Purpose: To assess the clinical and pharmacodynamic activity of dovitinib in a treatment-resistant, molecularly enriched non–muscle-invasive urothelial carcinoma bladder (NMIUC) population. Experimental Design: A multi-site pilot phase II trial was conducted. Key eligibility criteria included following: Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG)-unresponsive NMIUC (>2 prior intravesical regimens) with increased phosphorylated FGFR3 (pFGFR3) expression by centrally analyzed...
PURPOSE On the basis of National Comprehensive Cancer Network guidelines, clinical stage (CS) II seminoma is treated with radiotherapy or chemotherapy. Primary retroperitoneal lymph node dissection (RPLND) demonstrated recent success as first-line therapy for RP-only disease. Our aim was to confirm surgical efficacy and evaluate recurrences after primary RPLND CS IIA/IIB determine if various factors could predict recurrences. PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients who underwent from 2014 2021 were...
